MAP2, NT (Microtubule Associated Protein 2, MAP-2) (APC)

Antibodies / Antibodies-Microtubule-associated Proteins

4°C Do Not Freeze

Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2. Labeled with Allophycocyanin (APC).

Synthetic peptide selected from the N-terminal region of human MAP2 (KLH).

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the microtubule-associated protein family. The proteins of this family are thought to be involved in microtubule assembly, which is an essential step in neurogenesis. The exact function of this gene is still unknown. The products of similar genes in rat and mouse are neuron-specific cytoskeletal proteins that are enriched in dentrites, implicating a role in determining and stabilizing dentritic shape during neuron development.

Applications:
Suitable for use in FLISA and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilutions:
Immunohistochemistry: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
Store product at 4°C in the dark. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C for 12 months after receipt as an undiluted liquid. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: APC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap.
